    I'm excited. I had a coffee blonde ale in Amsterdam a few years ago from a local Dutch brewer and it was awesome. I too was drinking that before noon. Decorum prevents me from publicly stating how the rest of the day panned out in Amsterdam.

    Sorry it's probably all the images of lactose pouring into coffee in the original post that confused me, nothing to see here moving on :astonished:

    Let me add that I think Sixpoint is really good at marketing / branding / packaging.

    I see where you're coming from when you're wondering what it is that's getting everyone excited about a new cream ale. I guess all it takes to get folks into cream ales is ripping off the Wu (which I don't deem to be good marketing, but I guess it works) and some added coffee.

    That's their cream ale - not meant to have coffee added.

    You didn't get a different (though not particularly funny) joke. Maybe this is helpful: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poe's_law


    Since neither of us is supremely funny though, maybe we can talk about cultural (mis)appropriation instead?

    I got the joke bro. ;-)

    The Hudson line was a reference though, but as you keenly pointed out, Poe's law disrupted that intent. :-)

    cheers
